NGADM Round 5: FINALS


Good luck to my competitor Waterflame! Congratulations to everybody involved, there's nothing like sharing a whole bunch of new great music within a short amount of time, and receiving incredible feedback from all the kind, helpful, and honest judges. NGADM totally gave me a chance to improve on everything I wanted to work on. I was never able to scrape up the motivation until now, and learning all these new things motivates me to write more after this anyway.


And another thing: THANK YOU CAMOSHARK. For helping me out here and on Fly me to Blue earlier. Here, she provided the trumpet and sax player for this song, and was a big help during the finishing touches. Please, listen to hers genius music, she's out of this world:

Thanks everyone! Hope you like the track! c:


Lyrics:


Way too wicked and wild

The second from the sun is the closest thing to hell,

You will suffocate! You'll suffocate!


Far, far from feeling the flame

But close enough to melt on the second from the sun

We will lose our minds! We will wisp away!


At least the shame is gone


To violate our precious preservation

Pack us in a shuttle and send us toward the sun,

But not all the way!

There's a quicker way..


Does anybody even deserve to live?

Second from the sun answers with her deadly pressure

Crushing all aboard

Crushing all of man


Breathe all the oxygen you can and

Enjoy another sun tan before we bite the dust

If I'm literal..


Luckily the love you loathe'll leave

Searing in the clouds, you'll just fry all your emotions

And cease to exist!


War went so sour

Bombs burnt the land

We failed our sons, we were so wrong

Relied on god to save us


Fly toward the sun

Leave this wasted land

Fire will take you anyway

Venus take us


At least our death is quick to come out here


God gives you the confidence to die

Otherwise you'd be the loser who loves the life he has

Is that so backwards?

Does it matter now? Ooo!


Sound, sound asleep in seconds flat,

We will die a hasty death thanks to all of those who tried

To save their soul!


Way too wicked are we

We're parasites

Exploring, devouring..


My heart begs Venus

To reach out and

Take us

Didja win for being too good.

Cool. Reminds me of Dream Theater

Bad ass!!!

The first thing I thought of was Mars Volta.. This is an excellent track here.

NGADM Final and stuff.

Put out a crazy awesome tune, won the NGADM, gave me an eargasm.
Really, I'm running out of ways to say I think your stuff is awesome. As before, the riffing was awesome, the progish sound was very well done and kept things very interesting, the vocals (harmonies and all) were spot on and had a unique "Kor-Rune feel" to them. Just awesome all around.

The only complaints I have are every so often throughout the song, I noticed there was kind of a static or white noise in the mix... I'm not sure if that was intentional or not, but it confused me as to why it was there, felt very out of place... or maybe I'm going crazy or my speakers are starting to die... I dunno...
That and the chug felt extremely similar throughout the entire song, for the most part it held the same general rhythm all throughout, which felt a little repetitive after a while.

That aside, awesome work, flowed between numerous moods, kept things very interesting, and as mentioned above, overall... gave me an eargasm. 8.5/10.

Congratz champ.

Kor-Rune responds:

No, you're hearing living room fuzz, yes. I need one of them mic-stand vocal booth thingies

Thanks for the review! <:
